English poem
Easter Tuesday
by Christina Georgina Rossetti
“Together with my dead body shall they arise.”
Shall my dead body arise? then amen and yea On track of a home beyond the uttermost skies Together with my dead body shall they.
We know the way: thank God Who hath showed us the way! Jesus Christ our Way to beautiful Paradise, Jesus Christ the Same for ever, the Same to-day.
Five Virgins replenish with oil their lamps, being wise, Five Virgins awaiting the Bridegroom watch and pray: And if I one day spring from my grave to the prize, Together with my dead body shall they.
